ATR and JTS,
Thanks to both of you for your help! I had been able to combine several
".mov" files into a single file, with transitions. The problem was saving
it as a ".mov" file. When I saved using the defaults, I got a ".f4v" file
which I couldn't read using Windows Media Player.
I still can't save as a ".mov" file but the reference to presets proved
quite helpful and after quite a bit of experimenting I was able to save as a
".mpg" file that works well on my PC. Here are the details:
I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64 bit with Premiere Elements 12.0.
My input files were created with a Canon camera, 1920x1080, 24
frames/second.
The preset that works well for PC viewing is "HDTV 1080p 24 High Quality."
I was hoping to also be able to view the combined file on our TV (Sony 720p
with a Panasonic Blu-ray player) but it didn't work. Maybe I just need to
experiment with other presets.
Thanks again for your help. If you have any further thoughts that you think
would be helpful, I'd appreciate them.
